Today, we went on our first field trip with River Springs Charter School! We went to a local organic farm, Tanaka Farms. We played on hay bales, wound our way through a corn maze, picked fresh vegetables, and chose our own pumpkins. We also stopped by the produce stand and picked up a few discount items before coming back home. I had big plans for pumpkin soup, but Mary has already requested pumpkin bread instead (with lots of chocolate chips, of course)!

| These ginormous pumpkins were not among the ones we were permitted to bring home! So sad! |
 |
| Mary and Maggie on the hay bales. |
 |
| We ran into Casey, one of Mary's friends from class. The girls had a lot of fun exploring the corn maze together and found lots of dinosaur eggs in the process. |
 |
| The girls each got to pick their own vegetables: 4 onions, 4 carrots, 4 radishes, and 4 beans. |
 |
| Maggie was excited about this big radish! |
 |
| Maggie was delighted with the first pumpkin she picked. |
 |
| This is pumpkin #1 for Mary, which was quickly discarded. |
 |
| Pumpkin #2, another reject. |
 |
| And pumpkin #3 is the winner! |
Looks like the girls had a lot of fun picking fresh veggies and pumpkins.
